It's Kojima who is concentrated on western creators. He straight up came to TGA's to brag about working with Jordan Peele! Lmao. Also he has been jerking off Del Toro for the past 10 years, another western creator. Death Stranding is choke full of western stars. He loves these big name western film/tv stars and creatives. But I do agree that there is a lot of good eastern horror creatives, I did mention that Junji Ito could be working with Kojima but Kojima definitely has a preference of late towards working with western stars and creators.

In retrospect I agree that Kojima seems to like to use more western actors but then again his games seem to have a better reception in western audience.  I would like for him to use more eastern creators as there are some out there with some off the wall and truly out there horror work.  I believe Junji Ito is definite a good choice and he has a bit of a name which is something Kojima likes as well.

Yeah, I would like to see it too, but I think Kojima doesn't make no secret of the fact that he wants Hollywood validation and his ultimate goal is to make films for Hollywood. He's a Hollywood fanboy and wants to be friends with Hollywood stars. Since MGSV he has plastered his games with Hollywood actors, creatives, etc. Now he gets part of his dream with A24 making a Death Stranding film.

I struggle to think of Kojima elevating many local industry folk Tbh.

Junji would be great and there's a lot of great Korean filmmakers too.
